Why Blog
Somebody asked me today, "what's the point of a blog?"
A fair question, so let me give you the textbook def:
Blog (originally weblog) is a diary or history. Blogs are used by all types of entity from corporates to personal users. Most personal blogs are anonymous and typically refer to issues in daily life – usually centred on the working environment.
And let me share with you why I created a corporate relocation blog. Everytime I talk to someone in our industry, corporate relocation manager, someone I work with, a competitor....I almost always learn something new or more about how relocation gets done. And wouldn't it be great if we could take that learning, that benefit, and instead of it happening in a vacumn, rather, if I find something good to share, share it with 20 people or 40 people, etc at one time, rather than a he tells a friend and she tells friend and so on.
The other great advantage of blogging, are the comments, that's where the community of readers can revise, restate, correct, retool whatever is found in the blog. I hope you will do that and make it a dialogue versus a monologue.
